Zoiper Desktop App (Windows / Mac) #
Install and configure the Zoiper desktop app on Windows or macOS using your PeerOne SIP credentials.
This guide walks you through installing the Zoiper desktop softphone on Windows or macOS and configuring it to work with your PeerOne SIP account.
What You Need #
- Windows 10 or later, or macOS (recent supported version)
- Stable internet connection
- Your PeerOne SIP username, password, and domain
- Optional: USB or wired headset for better audio quality
Step 1 – Download & Install Zoiper #
- Click the Download Zoiper button above.
- On the Zoiper website, choose your platform: Windows or macOS.
- Download the installer and open it once the download is complete.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.
- Launch Zoiper from your Start menu (Windows) or Applications folder (macOS).
Note: Zoiper may offer free and paid versions. The free version is usually
sufficient for standard PeerOne SIP calling.
Step 2 – Add Your PeerOne SIP Account #
When Zoiper starts, it may prompt you to create or add an account. If not, go to Settings → Accounts and choose Add. Use the values provided by PeerOne:
| Field | Value / Example |
|---|---|
| Account type | SIP |
| Username | Your extension number (for example, 101) |
| Password | Your SIP/VoIP password provided by PeerOne |
| Domain / Host | xyz.networkplus.ca (replace xyz with your assigned domain) |
| Authentication username | Usually the same as your Username, unless specified otherwise |
| Outbound proxy |
xyz.networkplus.ca (same as Domain/Host), if required by your PeerOne setup
|
| Display name | Your name as you want it to appear on caller ID (for example, Harris – PeerOne) |
Save the account. Zoiper should register and show a status such as Registered or Online. If registration fails, refer to the troubleshooting section below.
Step 3 – Place a Test Call #
- Connect your headset and make sure it’s selected as the audio device in Zoiper settings.
- Use the on-screen dial pad to enter a test number or extension.
- Click the Call button to place the call.
- Verify that you can hear audio and that the other side can hear you.
Troubleshooting #
| Issue | Suggested Fix |
|---|---|
| Registration failed / cannot connect |
|
| No audio or one-way audio |
|
| Poor call quality or dropped calls |

Security & Best Practices #
